Mid Week News

Sunday 4th February 2007

AM: The second petition of the Lord's Prayer: "Your Kingdom come". Wherever people love and worship God, there the Kingdom has already come. But that Kingdom is far from complete, and it is only when Christ returns that God will be "all in all". In the meantime, God's people are to be fully involved in extending that Kingdom, for the devil is still wielding much power. No one can pray "Your Kingdom come", and at the same time remain a fence-sitter. Read Matthew 13: 24-52.

PM: Our world focuses on what we want, what makes us happy, our preferences and desires. It's all great, right? And what's more, our lifestyle and the opportunities afforded by living in Australia make most of it attainable. It's incredible when you think about it! Our personal power of choice is unparalleled in history and the envy of 99.5% of the current world
population. So... why should I care about broken people? What difference will it make to me? Read Matthew 9:35-38.
